So much fun! There was an Earth Day event at the Off the Grid last night and it was so much fun. A beautiful day, lots of parking, great vendors, delicious food, live music and lots of fun activities for the kiddos. We had such a lovely evening and can't wait for the next one!

Teo years of deadly virus and the popular Off the Grid has return to Pleasant Hill Wednesday Night. I been attending this Wednesday Night extravaganza since 2014 and it gets better. Hot or cold there are people that are coming to the park. Off the Grid has taken measure to make sure people who are not vaccinated are still wearing the mask. Instead of chairs in the park they now provide tables. Easy for Off the Grid to setup and take down. Pleasant Hill is the home for Off the Grid on Wednesday Night. Second biggest market to Fort Mason Friday Night.

Pretty cool spot, I food was ok and the beer was nice. The vibe and live music was the highlight. I like that it's family friendly.

My favorite Off the Grid in CoCo county! Yes, it's true... lil P-hill really knows how to throw a true Off the Grid Par-tay! The Pleasant Hill Off the Grid is one of the larger markets in the area and usually houses about 7-10 rotating food trucks. I love that they actually provide an adequate amount of lawn chairs that they are available for anyone to sit and lounge in. They also have three portable restrooms with hand sanitizer stations in them AND a little station where you can actually wash your hands! This Off the Grid is held right behind Michael's off of Gregory Lane, and there is always parking available. They usually have a beer garden available with beer and wine that's supplied by a local brewery or pub in the area. I also really enjoy their live music! This market is usually held every Wednesday year around from 5p-9p. During the summer it can get quite busy, but I've never had to wait a ridiculous amount of time in line. What I really enjoy most about this Off the Grid are the variety of great food trucks that they have! The food trucks are usually rotating but they tend to always have a nice spread of trucks that have different types of cuisines. They also usually have around 10 or so trucks whereas the Concord location usually only had about 5-7. Some of my absolute favorite food trucks frequent this Off the Grid! I'm utterly obsessed with Cousin's Maine Lobster truck. I literally had to ween myself off the truck for a while because I was coming almost every Wednesday to get their addicting lobster roll! Another favorite truck of mine is IzzyA's frozen custard truck. If and when this truck is present... a scoop of frozen custard will most likely be in my hand at any given time. There are several other trucks that come here that I enjoy as well. The variety, convenience, and entertainment is what constantly keeps me coming back. If you're in the Contra Costa are and are looking for good eats and good times, you should definitely check the Pleasant Hill Off the Grid out.

Taste of The World Markets, bringing together food, people, and beer and they said we wouldn't…read moreaccomplish world peace, not a bad place to start. A public, free, and regular occurring event that brings you the finest selection of California Mobile Food Vendors to local venues close to home. Dont worry either, its perfectly safe to bring the whole family, if the weather is favorable then you can even expect to find tables and chairs but in any case a diverse array of vendors that make grabbing a bite to eat exciting, fast, and cost effective. Only problem here is deciding who to enjoy but just remember it's a reoccurring event so just pick something and come back next time for a whole new experience.

This is a two star review. I came here at the recommendation of a co-worker and want to like it…read moremore than I did. I think the problem is that I couldn't get past the lack of a restroom in the area. They had some portables, but they are making food and we are supposed to eat it. Where are they washing their hands? This area is also pretty cold so if you go, make sure that you have a coat, scarf and hat. I'll never make that mistake again. But because of the cold, I didn't want to eat outside so our food got a cold, but it was good. My husband liked the food he got, but gluten free options are super limited. They get a third star because of the bar! Now there was only one person working there and that's fine because he could go get a snack or something and come back to pour drinks, but again. The restroom issue. Where does he wash his hands, what if he has a cold and sneezes into them, and so on. That's where my mind went. The vendors are quite nice and were helpful and weren't mean when they answered my GF questions and I appreciate that. So, this is like the little engine that could. I can see that it is a gathering spot for people and they have music and speakers which is cool. So I saw and felt a community vibe and people really seemed to like going. If I lived in the area, I may try it a bit more, but in all honestly, Oakland Museum's Off the Grid event is everything I wish this was. I'm sure that they will get there, but don't want to hang out while they figure it out.

I've mentioned this statement in previous reviews: if you are going to be a food truck that…read morespecializes in an American classic such as burgers, hot dogs, Mac and cheese, or in this case, Philly cheesesteaks, you really need to blow me away and especially if you are going to charge an arm and a leg (more on that detail in a minute) I came across this place at the electric Caltrain launch party in Palo Alto. I have actually seen this food truck before but never had the opportunity to order from here so I thought today would be a good day. It seems like their claim to fame is that they use halal meat. I ordered the loaded P and a side of fries. I was pretty underwhelmed with the overall meal. The roll looked like it was bought from a general store and the cheese looked like nacho cheese you get in a can. I will give them credit that the fries tasted fresh but again, I was overall underwhelmed with the whole meal. Truthfully I would have considered giving this place four stars but the total cost of this meal came out to more than $30, which is a bit crazy. I understand we are going through an inflation period but a cheesesteak and fries costing that much is insane. Had the meal blown me away, I would have understood the high price. There may not be many cheesesteak shops in the Bay Area but there are enough where I can compare the quality and price of those shops to this truck. The quality of the sandwiches is definitely similar but the other places are way cheaper. Like I mentioned earlier, if you are going to be a truck that specializes in an American classic and are going to charge a hefty price, then be prepared to impress me. Unfortunately this truck did not pass that bar.

Good portions and fast service for loaded fries. Beef was…read moremore like dehydrated chipped beef. The cheese was melted Velveeta. By the way, Velveeta and American cheese are milk products, not cheese.

We were able to order and get our food pretty quickly which is always nice. I always get the bulgogi bun because their meat is soft & flavorful (wish I could make this at home). My husband messed up and got himself a katsu bun. Not because it wasn't amazing, he enjoyed the crispy chicken and tasty flavors, but because he was jealous of my bulgogi bun! I mean who wouldn't be; once you've tried bulgogi, it's hard to have anything else. All their buns come with the pickled cucumbers and ginger which makes a nice fresh addition to the tops of the already warm and fresh buns. If you are wanting to try their food I definitely recommend the bulgogi buns!

While the Bao and the Bulgogi were very good, nostalgic foods always taste better in the past ! Ambience was sparse and service was courteous We will find them again and of course have these items again!

Great food: frescas, entrees and desserts…read more I ordered lengua , pork belly and shrimp cheese tacos. I loved the crunchiness of the pork belly and the flavor. The lengua taco had meat that was tender and delicious. Both tacos were lightly seasoned and not hot. The shrimp cheese taco was my least favorite. The shrimps were small and had no flavor. There was a lot of cheese, but again there was no real flavor that made you want to order it again. I believe if they used large grilled shrimp and no cheese , but grilled onions, this taco would be a hit. The tacos came either a side of avocados, different peppers and sliced radishes. The frescas were made in-house: hibiscus, watermelon and cantaloupe. I ordered the cantaloupe fresca and it was refreshing with just amount of sweetness . My husband ordered the birria tacos and he definitely would ordered them again. He ordered the hibiscus fresca and said it was very good. He wants to go back and try more of their food. We ordered churros which were made in house. They tasted like the churros we had in Barcelona. We want to order this again. Everyone who came with us enjoyed what they ordered. Overall, Tacos El Patron was a wonderful experience because of the quality of their food. We hope to return very soon.

It was a $12 burrito for something that was the size youd give a kid. I was so disappointed! I would have been better iff elsewhere. I gave them 3 stars for convenience but I will keep trying other establishments in the area that better suit my needs. I hear their birria is what theyre known for. But itll be a while before I head back.
